Tell David Lama's Sponsors to Stop their Support of his Bolting Actions on Cerro Torre

[magro81]

@reybelo

yep...big brand like Red Bull must stay away of uncontaminated places like Glacier National Park and peaks like Cerro Torre...don't know why Lama want to do a foolish thing like that...climb up the compressor route and then, going down with double rope creating a new route shooting spit into the rock (also near the natural handhold)...bha. Stories like that are poisoning the alpine world....(sorry for the bad English!!)

natural born climber, but still does not have Sharma style.

[yukasdog]

@ricardorivaldo

thi guy is much better a climber than sharma, who s just a chimp. this is climbing, not sharma's

[goppel1]

How was this filmed?

[johnalaska13]

There is a fine line between enjoying an adrenaline rush and playing Russian roulette. It´s really admirable the climber´s performance, even in the crux he didn´t shake or doubt for a second; however, the ice is much more unpredictable than the rock. This climb has turned a success and I must thank you for the great time I had watching it, but beware to not do solo ice climbing with a "regular" frequency. Remember that the worse enemy of an experienced climber is to have over self-confidence.

1. If he's wearing that many clothes, his hands must be frozen numb.

2. The camera work imo exceeds the climber by being there before and staying with him the whole way.

3. What if chalk were forbidden and in fact was not used?

[HosteDenis]

@thumlyly

1) yes, his hands could be frozen numb if it's indeed as cold out there as his clothes suggest. This, however, makes it harder to climb

2) no, the camera-man does not climb. Did you really think the cameraman is a better climber, because he was there before and can keep an eye on the climber whilst, according to you, climbing? Filmcrew are suspended from a rope.

3) Then some levels of climbing would not yet have been achieved.

[iksoinemod]

I wouldn't do that with 100 ropes!

[SkMmi]

I love David.. he is best climber:-*:))

[AlbinVega1865]

This kid is just so smooth...a real pleasure to watch. Very inspiring.

[Dave1507]

why does everybody compare david lama to chris scharma?

isn´t it enough, that lama is an awesome climber, great to watch and inspiring?

[mynosebled]

great song

awesome climber

[alecto21982]

He is great, so incredibly agile.

Don't think however he'll exceed sharma and the likes of him because he's already topping 8's at the age of 16. Sharma was at that level too at 15 years old. Can even find it on Youtube. So were probably all the other mutants who currently top or open 9's. Maybe Adam Ondra will get even further since he's already topping 9's at the age of 16 at flashing 8's all around. Doesn't really mather though. All the climbers at their skill level are amazing to watch.

kleinerkaktus123 , i only read your reply just now.thanks for the information , ill take your advice.happy climbing.

[kleinerkaktus123]

The rope is to secure him while climbing up... or at least while falling down and to bring him down when he was on top. Someone has to stand at the ground and belay him.

You could definitely find a side which explains basic rock climbing... google helps. But if you have never done it you should either go with someone who knows what he does or take part in a course. Sometimes your life depends on the right use of all the stuff.

[alvinabejuro]

hello rock climbers! is there any site in the internet that explain how to make basic rock climbing?im interested.anyone< reply me please.

[alvinabejuro]
